Honored Contributorhw multiplier for Cyclone
With NIOS-1 i could select three implementations for multiplications (sw, mul_step, mul). In Nios-2 this feature is complety missing. Is there any way to tell the SOPC-Builder for NIOS-2 to integrate...

Honored ContributorI don't know if Cyclone II would have it in the GUI but it shows up as a check box under the "f" core. Right now it's only that core that has it available. If you need one really bad you can always re-invent the wheel and make one (binary divider) since I'm 99% sure that's what altera does and add it as a custom instruction.
Chances are in the next release it will be available for all cores since it's not DSP dependent anyway (so it should work on Cyclone or Stratix and all three cores).
